  1. Re:Snow, ice, etc. on Autonomous Cars Aren't As Smart as They're Cracked Up To Be (computerworld.com) · · Score: 1

    Added as a problem to the issue of hazardous road conditions is the fact that when said conditions occur, if there is a manual override on the autonomous vehicle, the driver will be less experienced in their general driving skills because they've not been driving. So in bad weather conditions, more responsibility to manually drive safely will be dumped on drivers with less experience in doing so.

    Net Rage.

    Bravo.

    Now that you've had your break, take your hot pockets down into the basement and refresh your Storm Front page before the cookie expires.

    Wonderful. I'm always in favor of more money being diverted to landlords and insurance companies.

    Shucks. Why use a primary news source if somebody has cobbled something up on Wikipedia??

  5. Re:Economic calculations on Obama Rejects Keystone XL Pipeline (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 1

    One of the things we can look forward to in the next century is the actual end of racism. Once we've all learned to live together in harmony no matter what our ancestry, we will be able to look back at President Obama and openly acknowledge what a turd he was.

    Fucker really has no legacy. Not even a half dollar during his term as president.

    Probably what you should do is make it more clear to the voters.

    Democrats should adopt 'Raise Fuel Taxes' as a prominent campaign issue. It could appear on lawn signs, campaign buttons, and television commercials.

    Why be obscure about what you view as important to the country?

  7. Re:It's a Playstation world. on Hands-On With the Nintendo PlayStation (engadget.com) · · Score: 2

    You are so right. There is nothing out there called Pokemon. Harvest Moon is just an almost lost prototype that was never produced. Animal Crossing is just vaporware.

    I will admit that Nintendo doesn't typically produce dickthrust combat games.

    How do you get away with claiming that 'government backed wind' is part of a deregulated open market? It's a blatant distortion of what would be an open market.

    BeOS!

  13. Taptic feedback mice probably demand tremendous bandwidth.

  14. The power source should be doing that, never the cable. How does the cable know what type of voltage source it's plugged into? The cable should never have the resistors in it, the power source should.

    So it's only a horrible mistake to use iOS in the enterprise. Nice takeaway, but mostly unimportant, as iOS won't ever make it far in the enterprise. Apple has always been terrible there.

    An SE/30 and a Laserwriter make a good 'server' but that's their most recent success.

    Ultimately, wikipedia and some "scientists " with agendas get to make the word anything they want.

    Better would be to mount a small sprayer on your bike frame. A little spritz of safety orange could help save that black clad pedestrian from the next bike to happen soon. Done discreetly enough they might not even know you did it until considerably later.

    There are also trails, I could cite examples in my locality, where predators look for zoned out people to bonk and steal their gadgets. Running along in your "zone" at mile 17 with your ear buds in is just asking for trouble.

    Apparently, though, since they're reported here to be out in the wild, somebody found them useful, or at least worth installing.

    Damage Control! Roll out the fud (but go soft on the fear, we've got iPhones to sell)

  22. "Browsers in their sample size"?? on Latest EMET Bypass Targets WoW64 Windows Subsystem (threatpost.com) · · Score: 2

    There can't be that many browsers to "sample". Browsers aren't like the population of field mice in the world. You don't use a statistical process to analyze a random sample of them, then declare a ridiculous statistic like "80 percent of them". In the real world there are four or five or eight (some finite quantity). Any declaration should read something like: "five of the seven browsers examined..."

  23. It Isn't Evolution on Emerging Technologies and the Future of Humanity (sagepub.com) · · Score: 1

    The summary quotes the progress as being referred to as "technological evolution." That is a poor way of framing technological progress and utterly unscientific. It's sloppy language. Evolution is a known biological process, but also a term badly abused in common usage. Technologies don't evolve. They are created by mankind.

    Please, let's try to use good language here, not pop culture blather.

    The trick is that adults don't have to max out their credit cards on in-app purchases like this. Millions of them can drop $20 a week in little $1 transactions; that's how King gets their millions.

    Expensive R&D goes into making stuff like Candy Crush highly addictive and manipulative.
